Who is threatening to bring down politicians who support Trump’s rhetoric?

Former Republican rising star, Liz Cheney says she is prepared to take on any of her fellow party members who continue to support Trump’s rhetoric

Cheney recently lost her Wyoming Congressional seat after Trump-backed candidate Harriet Hag-e-man secured a win in the primary race.

Speaking to the ABC in what is her first public interview since the defeat, the outgoing congresswoman says some of the best known Republican figures are now in her firing line.

This includes Kevin McCarthy, Ron DeSantis and Ted Cruz, all people who support Trump’s theory that the 2020 presidential race was stolen.

Cheney has announced plans to set up her own political organisation and is even considering a 2024 presidential run to stop Trump in his tracks.

She says this latest result in Wyoming is just another indication of how many people believe the former president’s lie.
